The Romantic Prodigal, A Lyrical
Friday, December 2nd, 2005I am the shame of my kind
Blame my dying flame, such the same
As I know I am the traitor I never wanted to be
Dark winged angel from Heaven sent
To me a mortal born with depression
This fire, a desire, a chilling perspire
In my heart I always wished to dream
Of daylights sweet and the rainbow beam
Yet those dark clouds come in haste
And all the this melancholy I taste
Forgive me the romantic spirit hurt
Me, born a fragile birth
God, angel, help give me the power
To hold on during those betraying hours
Oh! Who are they to know of my pains?
Ah! My heart, my soul
They have and are still
Singing songs of pain, lament, joys and ease
Even since before all came of birth
Of such careless mirth
Oh risen from ashes
Phoenix born once and twice again
That still will do
Let imagination return
Let the cries of sorrow and affection come
As the mist of mystery flows and surrounds
Once again the romantic tale, the epic
Lyric, the rhyme
Let the Romantic wanderer journey again
